After deposit settlement, the Vault Runtime Layer governs how liquidity is held and allocated, forming the operational core of Prime Vaults’s capital lifecycle:
StakingVault as the Liquidity Hub
The StakingVault serves as the liquidity hub, holding user deposits and retaining the required assets as the Withdrawal Settlement Reserve to fulfill withdrawal requests processed through the Withdrawal Queue
Transfer to StrategyVault
Surplus liquidity beyond the Withdrawal Settlement Reserve is transferred to the StrategyVault. The Manager module authorizes this transfer by requesting the StakingVault to release the excess capital.
